Panther A Conversion
Re: Panther A Conversion
Looking great, hopefully the finish on mine will look half as good when I get to that stage. The Panther A is my favourite version and the most numerous of the war.
Once again great work.

Re: Panther A Conversion
Thanks Al! I wish you all the best with yours. I half wish I done the driver's visor like you, and the rear turret hatch, but I couldn't see me using them. That, and I want to start something else. It will be opening-hatch city.
I too love the ausf A, for its cleaner lines.

Re: Panther A Conversion
Oh never you mind about that roller mate, send it up here and I will GLADLY install it for you.............could take several years though
A superb 'A' and one to be very proud of.
If mine comes close(if I ever get to it) I shall die a happy little Vegemite !!

Re: Panther A Conversion
Some immaculate work on the internal arrangements, and wiring, Estniche!. Very neat, and well thought through.
Quite why it crossed my mind, I don't know, (could be eccentricity..) but I imagined how you might have fitted an entertainment centre, auto wet nappy detector, and set of monitors, inside a baby carriage (Pram). A truly deluxe pram for offspring

Re: Panther A Conversion
A solid result Brett, and certainly one to be proud of. You've pulled off some serious surgery on the donor vehicle and transformed it into something unique, doing such a neat job you wouldn't know the tank didn't come like that. Keep it up!

Re: Panther A Conversion
Thanks Dan, I would have liked a little better weathering, but it could have been worse quite easily! Hopefully I can apply it to better the next one.
Re: Panther A Conversion
Wonderfull conversion. And hey, you can always revisit the weathering. A tank model is never finished.
